Biography

Hi, I’m
Fraser Porter

I’m a 22 year-old journalist from Edinburgh, Scotland with over 6 years of experience in the industry alongside a degree in Journalism from Edinburgh Napier University.

I specialise in broadcast media, with an emphasis on television production, behind-the-scenes and in-front of camera presenting. In this medium I have created numerous TV packages, features and news, alongside a 10 minute documentary on my specialised niche – professional wrestling. Through university I have gathered skills in presenting to camera, directing a team of people to produce a finished news programme and I have become a proficient video editor.

Outside of the TV medium I have also produced and presented a number of podcasts and radio shows for audio distribution, working as the studio manager and technical support for the university radio station. I was the host of the morning show for Radio ENRG and co-host on the show ‘Nerd Culture’ where I discussed all things nerdy and geek.

Despite the specialisation in broadcast media I do also have experience in written work and digital online media. I have written for three magazines focusing on my niche specialisation and worked as a freelance editor for one. Not only that but I have been working part-time for the past two years as the community manager of the online company and YouTube channel, Cultaholic. This came from my work experience with them back in 2018.
